Bronchoscopy is a medical procedure used to examine the airways and lungs. It involves the insertion of a thin, flexible tube called a bronchoscope through the nose or mouth into the trachea and bronchial tubes. This technique allows healthcare providers to diagnose conditions such as infections, tumors, and airway obstructions, as well as to perform therapeutic procedures like tissue biopsies or removal of foreign objects. Additionally, bronchoscopy can help in the evaluation of chronic cough, bleeding, and other respiratory symptoms.
